Description
This updated 8th Edition of NUTRITION FOR HEALTH AND HEALTH CARE demonstrates the critical roles that nutrition plays in maintaining health, preventing illness, and treating disease. Designed to engage and instruct both future nurses and health care professionals, the book is also useful as an introduction to nutrition for general nutrition students. Beginning with an introduction to basic nutrition guidelines, digestion, and the macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats, and proteins), the first half of the book continues with discussions on energy balance and imbalances, vitamins and minerals, and dietary requirements and influences during the different stages of life. The second half of the book examines the variations in dietary intakes that may be required to prevent or treat disease and includes current clinical practice guidelines released by experts in the various conditions discussed. Important Notice: Media content referenced within the product description or the product text may not be available in the ebook version.
